The think what I liked the most about this dish (other than the fact that it is so simple to prepare) is that it is made ahead and chilled. So I doubled the recipe and served half for dinner last evening, which I have to admit that I warmed it up just a bit to satisify my family's preferences. But I was able to save the other half for a busy night ahead of us (next week) when I won't have time to cook. This will be the perfect side dish, because all I have to do is remove it from the refrigerator and place it in a nice serving bowl, and it's ready to serve. Thanks for sharing your recipe, morgan.
